I see. I'll probably try that too. I'm also wondering what your thoughts are on just going with a shirt that isn't tucked in.

I heard that it can be uncomfortable at times. So I was probably going to wear an undershirt tucked in with a shirt over that.

This is how I have been wearing mine: undershirt tucked in, holster over that, then polo or button up untucked covering up.

When I tuck my shirt in(for say going out to eat or something), I wear an undershirt tucked in, holster over that, then outer shirt tucked over holster. This like I said leaves the clips exposed, but no one notices. Plus you can later get the V-clips for a belt with velcro that leaves the clips behind the belt. But until then I am going to color the black clips brown to match my belt to make them even less noticable.

I always talk about how much I love my Supertalk on here, but a couple of things:

-When I got my Supertuck, the mouth of the holster at the triggerguard bothered my middle finger on my draw. I eventually shaved that down a bit, and no problems now. Can't do that with leather. I have pics posted here somewhere showing the difference.

-The clips squeaked like crazy for a bit, but they're perfectly quiet now. Actually, I got new clips, and they don't squeak, so it may have been a belt finish issue.

-You'll likely have to play a bit until you find the sweet spot. The one problem with a holster that is so adjustable is you gotta spend time finding the balance between comfort and concealment. But once you do, it's like buttah.

I'ver had my supertuck for about 2 weeks. I have worn it out a few times and have been very satisfied. I wore it all day yesterday, with about 3 1/2 hours of driving with it and have had no problems. I'll probably get the metal clips one day. I have not adjusted it any. Straight out of the box and onto the hip and it works great for me. I carry a PT145 in it. I think you'll be satisfied with it.

I'm going to be carrying a xd40 subcompact. And I've read from other forums that it works fine for both comfort and concealment. Anyone have anything to add to that?

Excellent customer service as well, I broke a clip after wearing it a year. All they asked when I called them up was "what is your address"! It is my most comfortable holster. I still am not able to wear it with my 1911 t-shirt untucked only. The butt of the pistol sticks out too much and my wife complains.

I was wrong with the type of weapon I have its not the sub compact. I do believe that its the service model. I've also been looking for pics throughout this forum but I can't seem to find any.

Can anyone help at all.?

eh, I've been needing to take some pictures for here anyway, so here are some I just took.





Now, when I tuck in a shirt, I normally wear a button down that works a little better, but this will give you an idea




This shows how it kinda molds really well
